general intelligence. Due to the difficulty of this task, for

the last few decades the majority of AI researchers have

In recent years, however, more and more researchers Rich Sutton, University of Alberta, Canada
have recognized the necessity, and feasibility of returning Kristinn Thorisson, Reykjavík University, Iceland
to the original goals of the field. Increasingly, there is a Lyle Ungar, University of Pennsylvania, USA
call for a transition back to confronting the more difficult Les Valiant, Harvard University, USA
issues of human level intelligence and more broadly Marco Wiering, University of Utrecht, Netherlands
